Up and Coming Knicks
New York won 5 consecutive games in early February to get back into the Eastern Conference playoff race and was over 70% on the under with road game totals. Harvard’s own Jeremy Lin was becoming a cult hero at guard with 11.9 points and 4.1 assists per game with no less than 20 points per game during the 5 game winning streak. “Linsanity” has become a new word that may soon go national, if not viral!
James is King
Let there be no mistake about who the true NBA superstar is however as Miami’s LeBron James was smoking hot averaging 28.1 points and 7 assists per game. Miami had the NBA’s 2nd ranked scoring offense while ranking in the middle of the pack on defense. Miami went under the total at home at a near 60% clip and was break even against the spread as a host.
Trends
Incredibly enough the Knicks have gotten the money in their last 4 matchups with the Heat and this head to head series has failed to go over the total in the last 5 meetings. New York has had strong long term success at Miami with 12 payouts in their last 18 visits including the last 3 straight with none of those games going over the total.
Basketball Picks
The Knicks plus the points with an under make for the best play here as Miami as often overvalued at home with a willing public making overlays. While both teams are strong offensively the odds maker has adjusted to that fact. This series has trended under and should be a typical Eastern Conference brawl.
